A drum, a drum...
BBC4 showed Macbeth with Patrick Stewart in the title role. A modern-ish production riffing on the Russian Revolution and Stalin for its imagery, cutting the ever-popular "he has killed me, mother!" but keeping most of the text, with the three witches as creepy wimple-hatted nurses. Good stuff, obviously not a laugh riot.
